A variety of runs for intermediate skiers is available on the Wiedersbergerhorn and the connecting Inneralpbach slopes, with a free ski bus linking the centre of Alpbach with the Wiedersbergerhorn gondola and the Pögl gondola in Inneralpbach (5 minutes' ride) as well as the Reitherkogel gondola in Reith (10 minutes' ride). A gondola connects Inneralpbach with Auffach in the Wildschönau Valley, which adds an even wider choice of runs for intermediate skiers who want to explore the Niederau, Oberau and Auffach ski areas.

You also have Schatzberg ski route 27 to Thierbach (with lunch recommended) and post bus or taxi back to Auffach and Schatzbergbahn.
